Battling Records of the Chosen One

Chapter 134: Mighty Rise

Chapter 134: Mighty Rise

After joining in the Bloodthirsty Camp, Lin Xun would enter the Heaven-accessing Place every three days, attempting to pass the test, which had become one of his habits.

Even if he failed the test, it was still beneficial for him to refine his physical body.

Just yesterday when he tried to pass the test at the 67th time, he found that he just needed to pass a distance of about 33 meters before reaching the top of the mountain from which countless waterfalls rushed down.

One month ago, he was only able to climb halfway up the mountain. Such a comparison showed that his physical strength had been promoted greatly during this period.

According to his estimation, he would in less than two months pass this test named Mille-waterfalls.

The progress he had made in the month enabled his score to become much higher. Now, he was better than the average among the 30 trainees of Camp 39!

Such an improvement appeared inconspicuous but really startling.

It was well-known that each trainee left in Camp 39 was the best of the best. In just one month, Lin’s rank ascended to the upper middle level, which indicated that his battle effectiveness was advanced rapidly.

His progress imposed great pressure on the other trainees.

Without any exaggeration, all trainees in Camp 39 were at the ninth level of Martial Realm, except for Lin Xun whose level was seven.

Lin Xun at the seventh level of Martial Realm made entrance into the upper middle, which put a lot of strain on those who had higher cultivation than him but were lower than him in the rankings.

As what Young Man said to Shu Sanqi, Lin Xun’s cultivation seemed to be his weakness, but Lin Xun had greater space for progress compared with the others.

That was because the others had already been on the verge of breaking through into Gang Spirit Realm, which meant improvement of their power in Martial Realm had hit a bottleneck.

However, Lin Xun was different. The strength of the seventh level of Martial Realm had catapulted Lin into the upper middle. How powerful would he become when his cultivation was promoted to the eighth level?

And, how terrible power would he own at the ninth level?

Anyone who realized this would begin to take Lin Xun seriously.

Confronted with Lin Xun’s gradual rise, some people, like Ning Meng, were exhilarated, while some, like Qi Can, were unhappy.

At present, Shin Wenbin was completely eliminated by the Bloodthirsty Camp because of his failure in last monthly assessment. But, his hatred didn’t dissolve thereupon.

At least, each one befriending Shin Wenbin, including Qi Can, Wen Mingxiu, and Mou Lengshin, and Lin were mutually incompatible, though these people didn’t have a deep-seated hatred for Lin Xun.

The more powerful Lin Xun became, the more distraught they were.

If they were in the outside world, they would take innumerable measures to prevent Lin Xun from making progress. They even had means to stop his cultivation once for all.

But, Bloodthirsty Camp set great store by regulations and rules, so they didn’t dare to put Lin Xun into trouble in broad daylight. They pinned their hopes on the possibility that Lin Xun would be sifted out in the training or that he would suffer tragic failure in the ensuing quarterly examination.

However, the two assumptions were impossible to occur, apparently, for Lin Xun still had enough room to become as powerful as he could. He made progress each day, and it was impossible for others to stop him.

Because of this, Qi Can and the others felt extremely unhappy upon seeing him, but they could do nothing about it.

Besides them, all the trainees including those who had been incorporated into Camp 39 felt stressed out when facing Lin Xun’s rise.

That was because Lin Xun was the only one who made wing-footed progress in the entire camp at present. After all, the progress the others made was more about the fighting skills and experience.

It was in terms of spiritual energy that Lin made progress, though!

To each practitioner, spiritual energy was fundamental, and it acted as the source power of one in a battle.

With the cultivation of the ninth level of Martial Realm, they were probably a little more powerful than Lin Xun in terms of comprehensive combat effectiveness. As time went, such an advantage would be curtailed gradually and they would even be transcended finally.

It was really possible. Lin Xun at the seventh level of Martial Realm could defeat many trainees at the ninth level. How formidable he would be when he was promoted to the ninth level?!

Many people used to think that Lin Xun was insignificant and was doomed to be sifted out. However, if someone still held such a standpoint, he would be considered really stupid.

Time flew, and a dozen days were gone.

One day, Lin Xun broke through into the eighth level of Martial Realm smoothly, entering into the phase of Big Circulation. The spiritual energy around him transformed completely!

On the fighting field.

Wen Mingxiu frowned, looking at Lin Xun on the opposite of her. In some way, she felt that something of him was different, but she couldn’t tell what it was.

She had fought against him four or five times in the training for over one month. At the beginning, she won more times than him, but gradually, she only had a fifty-fifty chance of winning.

She was fully aware of such changes, knowing that she might be in the midst of progress, but the speed of Lin Xun’s progress was quicker than her.

The conclusion could be drawn based on the change of Wen’s combat results – from the “winning more and losing less” into the “winning half and losing half”.

Depressed as she was, she had to admit that Lin Xun was in the process of mighty rise. Unless she broke through into Gang Spirit Realm at any cost, she would be surpassed by Lin sooner or later.

It was a pity that she definitely would not choose to make a breakthrough now. The reason why she joined the Bloodthirsty Camp was that she wanted to enter Gang-producing Lake. Therefore, she wouldn’t make a breakthrough before entering the lake.

Most importantly, the breakthrough into Gang Spirit Realm meant that she had to leave the Bloodthirsty Camp, for according to the camp’s regulations, trainees at Gang Spirit Realm weren’t allowed to stay in the camp.

“Humph, the quarterly assessment will be held in 10 more days. I believe that this guy at the seventh level would be definitely eliminated!”

After taking a deep breath, she discarded those distracting thoughts. She suddenly hurtled toward Lin Xun in the distance, kicking off a battle.

Although deep down, she still disliked him, she would be very careful. As a smart girl, she knew that if she wasn’t preoccupied to engage in this battle, she would end up losing more and winning less.

Hence, as soon as she launched an attack, she performed Jade-breaking Finger by Emerald Flame (JFEF), a secret skill handed down from the older generations of her family!

Whoosh!

Slender and fair, her fingertips were as sharp as swords, covered with emerald flames, releasing a kind of breathtaking but terrifying power of penetration.

Before, she relied on this skill to make Lin suffer a lot, which brought a lot of winning chances for her.

She was fully aware that Lin Xun had definitely become stronger recently, so she used this trump card in the beginning without any hesitation in a bid to take a preemptive step to frustrate his fighting spirit in one fell swoop. She hereby would grab many advantages for herself in the following battles.

However, beyond her imagination, Lin Xun took initiative to meet such a powerful strike instead of dodging it as usual.

Bang!

His countermeasure was BTTH (battle through the heaven), a simple move of Marching Boxing.

Unlike before, this punch gave off a kind of unstoppable and unbeatable momentum which seemed to be able to destroy the heaven and the earth.

With a boom, the air had collapsed afore the punch, as if it couldn’t bear this dreadful strike.

In this instant, Wen Mingxiu froze her breath. In a trance, she appeared to see a holy mountain in an attempt to destroy her approaching her. Immediately, her pores all over her body opened, as Lin made her feel a sense of unprecedented danger.

Bang!

Without time to change her move, she felt her fingertips like being smashed by a gigantic hammer. A gush of extraordinarily formidable force like turbulent waves engulfed her; she was violently knocked into the air and almost fell out of the arena.

Her face turned ghastly pale. She coughed a mouthful of blood. Terror uncontrollably crawled up her dainty face. How…how was it possible for him to become that powerful over a dozen days when they hadn’t fought against each other?

This scene dropped a bomb among the trainees, incurring confusion and uproar.

Those trainees who had noticed the whole process shrank their pupils with a look of surprise. To their surprise, Lin Xun became so powerful today.

“He’s promoted his cultivation…” someone murmured with his voice full of complexity.

Like throwing a stone in a pool, it made a stir; many trainees finally realized that Lin Xun had broken through into the eighth level of Martial Realm in less than two months.

“How could he improve the cultivation so quickly?”

“I haven’t found that he is so talented in cultivation until now?”

“Just as the saying goes, it never rains but it pours. Lin Xun is destined to be such a person. He’s kept a low profile in the past, while he is the process of mighty rise. Later…he’ll exceed more and more people.”

Many people showed complex looks: someone felt envious; someone felt astonished; but, more people were scared and stressful.

Lin Xun’s progress was so swift.

Since the last monthly assessment, his potentials seemed explosive and his cultivation kept rising steadily, which was difficult to be unnoticed.

“Ha ha, see, that’s my good friend. In the past, many trainees jeered at him, thinking that he would absolutely be eliminated. They turn out so ridiculous.”

Ning Meng laughed with gloat and said to his opponent on the opposite of him.

The faces of Qi Can and the others in his group darkened.

Shi Yu was lost in thought while staring at Lin Xun in the distance. The potential that Lin displayed had consecutively exceeded Shi’s expectations, which was quite abnormal.

At the moment, some people like Gong Ming, Di Jun, Lei Shinyue, and Ye Qi looked at Lin Xun with quite different eyes.

“I had looked down upon him…” with a slim figure, Young Ke stood at the gate of the fighting field, her bobbed black hair shinning in the twilight.

Looking at Lin Xun in the distance, she couldn’t help being somewhat distracted upon thinking of those changes happening to him.

From the day, Lin Xun’s rank in Camp 39 was in an upward trend, ultimately entering the top ones.

The quarterly assessment would be held in three days.
